San Francisco, CA's Flipper will be playing a free all ages show at Amoeba Music in San Francisco, CA in celebration of the release of their upcoming DVD, Flipper – Live Target Video 1980–81. The shindig will go down on Monday, February 18th at 6pm and will feature a meet 'n greet and possible DVD signing after the show.

The band has also been working on a new album with former Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic. It's the first new material for the band in fifteen years.

ok, I recently have been buying alot of vinyl.....decided to start collecting and shit....but I don't have a record player....what's everyones opinion...should I go to like best buy and buy a brand new sony record player for about 120 bucks or can you find a quality used one or something from a pawn shop???? IDEAS??

If you're in it for collecting, get a new one. Specifically a USB one that you can hook up to your computer. That way you can listen to a record, rip the songs to your pooter, and then hide it away for safe keeping.

I just pre-ordered this from Amazon last night, can't wait to get it. I'm super, super happy that it's not just a TV broadcast that's been floating around on soulseek for awhile. I mean, that is fucking awesome don't get me wrong, but it's better for all involved that it's unseen stuff.

I already do that. I have a Numark TTUSB Turntable. I upgraded the cartridge on it to a Numark Carl Cox model (a very heavy-duty needle and great sounding cart). Half the time, I hook it up to my iPod speakers and just play the records.
